Beautiful fruit and acid-driven Chardonnay with wonderful texture and a bit of funk. Holiday dinner bottle next to some old Bordeaux as an intro to the natty stuff for my folks.

Bright linear pink grapefruit and lemon oil, rich and round with fresh acidity long and refreshing finish.

2022. Crisp, lemony, apples, and enough creamy body to pair really well with butter chicken for dinner tonight!

I love this wine. Lemons, some bread, tons of minerals and acidity. Really well balanced. I also get some grassy flavors on the finish. Outstanding.

Phenomenal. Lemons, cream, minerals, some light berry flavor like with whipped cream. This one has years in the tank still.
